Montenegro 'committed to growth'

The Montenegrin tourist board will launch a new office in London this year as the country continues to welcome more international visitors.

Sasa Radovic, director of tourism at the National Tourism Organisation of Montenegro, said the board will have a presence in the English capital "by the end of 2008".

He said the new office is intended to form part of Montenegro's "commitment to develop inbound tourism" – something it has already demonstrated through a 20 per cent annual growth in visitor levels for the past three years.

According to figures from the World Travel and Tourism Council, the country now possesses the second fastest-growing tourism sector in the world.

"Montenegro is committed to growth and to maximise high quality investment in ways which are socially, environmentally and economically sustainable," Mr Radovic said.

Last week, government officials in Montenegro announced plans to increase spending by 15 per cent to 1.6 billion euros next year in support of major infrastructure projects.
